ALERT. It is a serious Skin Disease. It has the potential to cause Premature Ageing and Infections in the Skin
Xerosis is a common abnormally dry skin condition which affects millions of people especially during the winters. If not treated it can lead to premature skin aging and skin infections.
Symptoms

Causes
- Deficiency of natural moisturizing factors (NMF) present in the skin
- Underlying factors like diabetes, hypothyroidism and side effects of certain medications
- Environmental low humidity during winters and hot summer
- Unhealthy eating habits resulting in deficiency of essential nutrients
